LEX the Lexicon Artist feat. Atlas - All the Time Lyrics

Lyrics All the Time - Atlas , LEX the Lexicon Artist



I'm waiting for something to happen
To my brain it is just a distraction
But I can feel it everywhere I go
From the trains in Taipei to the streets of Manhattan
Fantasies I've lived in passing
Visions of my dreams that I've been redacting
Inhibited feelings turn to fits of passion
In the instant the minute hand's inched a fraction
The bigger the distance the faster the passage of time
That's relativity as it's applied
But adding attachments will addle its
Accuracy, it will cease to comply
I'd hack through the masses, my back to the sky
If that's what it takes to get back to your side
Cause the fact is I tried and I can't get you out of the
Chasm that acts as the back of my mind
The last time I cried was a year ago
I really fucking wish that the tears would flow
You're the inefficiency I fear the most
Instead of getting that bread my career is toast
It's weird I know, to worry that my time is running out
But I also think my calendar is tryna bum me out
With its lines and tasks I'm tryna grasp and act on
But I find the days just kinda drag on
When I'm thinking bout how great it'd be to have you
Think I'm moving but it's making me a statue
Maybe it's your simulacrum I'm attached to
Ache to pick your brain but I'm too afraid to ask you
Overdue for a change in attitude
Cover up the truth when exchanging platitudes
Pull back just to keep from sinking
Then we'll wait another week and I'll keep on thinking
I don't mean to hit you up again
But you're always on my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
I think about you all the time, all the time
I don't mean to hit you up again
But you're always on my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
I think about you all the time, all the time
I shouldn't live like you're the only thing I'm waiting for
But every minute I can taste it makes me crave it more
Anticipation plagues my waking state and shakes my core
Every day I wake to get my dopamine sensation from my notifications
And I can take no more
Pace the floor, reward centers in a state of war
To say I never felt this way before
Would be a fake discourse
Although revisiting the same remorse
I would never consider changing course
Is that insane, of course
I've staying ignoring my pain receptors
For ever extending durations of time
Reinforced my taste in
What I didn't have the patience for
And never expecting to make up my mind
But fame isn't something you can take by force
You may need to wait for it to take its course
And love isn't something to confuse with lust
Think of all the different ways they could use your trust
But I used my gut, and that has gotten me here
Hearing the clock tick and tock in my ear
I'm not giving up I will not disappear
Cause nothing and no one can stop my career
Sock all my fears in the face
Do not interfere with my pace
The clock is still ticking
I got to be winning this race
But not when I'm missing your face
The clock is still ticking
I got to get out of this place
The clock is still ticking
I think it won't stop till I'm dead
Then it does and the one thing that's left
Is a voice in my head
Tryna tell me it's not over yet
I don't mean to hit you up again
But you're always on my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
I think about you all the time, all the time
I don't mean to hit you up again
But you're always on my mind
I think about you all the time, all the time
I think about you all the time, all the time
I don't mean to cut you off again
But you're dragging me behind
I think I'm running out of time, out of time
I think I'm running out of time, out of time
I don't mean to cut you off again
But you're dragging me behind
I think I'm running out of time, out of time
I think I'm running out of time, out of time
